Ultimate Guide Maileg
What is Maileg?
In a world bustling with lights, bells and whistles, where new stories are continually imposed on us.
Maileg is a world where matchboxes can serve as beds for mice, where princesses are perfect companions for tea, and where one can have adventures on a friendly walk in the forest.
Everyone loves Maileg toys, and for good reason. Maileg... which is pronounced "My Lie" in Danish, offers very beautiful toys created to inspire our children's favorite stories.
The Maileg toys help children explore the pure and simple wonders of imagination. Valued for their comforting personality, the Maileg toys display playfulness and charm in every detail.
Notably the adorable little Maileg mice for which they have become famous. The range includes mini mice, dollhouses, furniture, and interior decoration for homes. Everything is made with the best materials and above all, with love.
Who is Maileg?
Following her joy for play and the imagination of childhood, Dorthe and her husband Erik founded Maileg in 1999, combining their last name "Mailil" with "leg", the Danish word for play.
His wish was to produce unique and quality products. The products are primarily toys and decorative items, all created with intrinsic design value.
The intention is to spread joy and inspire children to play imaginatively. The products are original and feature an aesthetic design that extends the life of each product. We appreciate that items are passed down from generation to generation.
How to play with Maileg?
They add a whimsical, almost magical touch to your child's little world, allowing them to immerse themselves in their creative and imaginative play.
To help spark your child's imagination, Maileg has created many different environments. You have the Magnetic Mouse Hiker - Big Brother as well as the Magnetic Mouse Hiker equipped with a cabin, you also have the Little Brother Mouse with Beach Cabin, the Little Sister Mouse with Beach Cabin, and the Big Sister Mouse with Beach Cabin; but you can also create a family with the several little mice!
The advantage of these little creatures is that they can accompany you everywhere! They do not take up space so even when you go on a trip it is always possible to slip them into the backpack to continue their adventures.
In addition, the brand offers wonderful furniture to decorate a doll's house, so you can also create a small house or a castle to house your little mice and make them live like real humans.
To keep these toys as long as possible, it is necessary to pay close attention to the washing instructions. Generally these are toys that can be washed at 30° but some can be washed by hand!
How to start collecting?
To start a Maileg collection well, you need to choose 1 or 2 little mice. We believe it is important to let children make the choice because each little mouse embodies a different character that represents more the passion and environment of your child.
It might be the Little Sister Ballerina Mouse, because they just started dance lessons. You can then add the Giselle Dancing Mouse, the Little Brother Matchbox Dancing Mouse which gives your child the opportunity to deepen their imaginative play by creating a whole world of dance and movement.
Or maybe he's about to become a big brother or sister? You can start with a big brother or sister mouse, then a little boy or girl mouse. You can then add items such as Deckchair - Micro or Stroller, Micro - Powder. This will allow them to play and immerse themselves in their new world of big brother or sister, in order to reproduce the family environment.
"When the mouse family starts to grow and your child spends their time inventing their little world, it is interesting to invest in the castle or dollhouse and gradually add all the necessary furniture. This way, you will have a beautiful collection Maileg!"
